What does this mean?
I made a post a few days ago expressing my displeasure with current 8.3 ‘content’.
It got quite a lot of positive and sympathetic responses with hundreds of ‘likes’!!!
Now it’s telling me it’s removed or hidden because of community flags. I’m confused. That’s not really adding up.
I hate to be conspiratorial, but I can’t help wonder if it got ‘removed’ or hidden because it was negative towards 8.3 and critical of Bliz?
Like I said. I’m just suspicious because it seem to get plenty of likes and favorable responses.

there are a lot of lurkers on the forums who don’t reply or anything, they probably flagged your post

Blizzard doesn’t flag posts, other forum users do.
And generally for whatever reason feels good to them at the time.
If the community managers don’t like your post, they remove it. They don’t flag it.

Likely flagged for naughty word usage. Be critical all you like, but if you need to use alternate symbols to stand in for a word, you shouldn’t be using that word here.

The new version of the dislike button forums used to have instead of being rational humans and leave a comment why they don’t like the topic they just flag.

Having a lot of likes does not mean much when there is no ability to dislike something. Since the removal of the dislike button some people use the community flag system as a way to show their dislike of a post.

Maybe that explains it cause I did use the word ‘crap’ in the title of the post.
i learned from a magical wizard dog long ago that if you type in
“ <ten chars/ >” (without the quotes or space after the slash) you can hide your text. you can even make blank posts with it

yeah right. flagged because white knights just didn’t agree with it. they just need to bring back the down vote button, how is current system of flagging what you don’t like any different or better?

I got this message once. I couldn’t figure out what the post was. Then the next day I got a message stating it was unhidden. Very weird. Still don’t know what the post was.
